Comparison of DXA , SXA and QUS
Methods: We carried out measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) of lumbar spine and femoral neck using DXA, QUS of heel using ultrasound densitometer, and BMD of forearm using SXA. We performed all the measurements at the Nuclear Medicine Division of King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia between 2002 and 2004. We obtained the measurements of 437 female adult patien...
متن کاملComparison of QCT and DXA: Osteoporosis Detection Rates in Postmenopausal Women
Objective. To compare the osteoporosis detection rates in postmenopausal women when measuring bone mineral density (BMD) with quantitative computed tomography (QCT) in the spine versus dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) in the spine and hip and to investigate the reasons for the discrepancy between the two techniques. Methods. Spinal volumetric BMD was measured with QCT, and areal spinal and hip B...
متن کاملBone Mineral Density Assessment in Pre- and Postmenopausal Women: Comparison Between T-Scores by Heel QUS and DXA in HRPZII.
This short-term study which was carried out in a small group of pre- and postmenopausal women at Hospital Raja Perempuan Zainab II (HRPZII) aims to compare between Tscores detected by heel Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) and by Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) of the hip and spine. The prevalence of osteoporosis by heel QUS was 63.3% and up to 16.7% by DXA. Insufficient or weak agreement exists be...

متن کاملComparison between the gold standard DXA with calcaneal quantitative ultrasound based-strategy (QUS) to detect osteoporosis in an HIV infected cohort.
INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis represents one of the most frequent comorbidity among HIV patients. The current standard method for osteoporosis diagnosis is dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Calcaneal quantitative ultrasound can provide information about bone quality. The aims of this study are to compare these two methods and to evaluate their ability to screen for vertebral fracture. METHODS Thi...
